So, I was in Hong Kong earlier this month for a Darksiders Media Preview event organized by Replay Interactive, and they brought down THQ Creative Director, Luis Gigliotti to go through the latest build and demo rolls of the game. We also got some hands-on time with the build and got to have a feel of gameplay, combat, weapons and most importantly mounted combat on Ruin. In this video, we’ve quickly included an overview of the media event, just because it was held at this gorgeous bar in an equally cool boutique hotel called Luxe Manor. They even hired HK model/actress Zoie Tam to cosplay as a female War. Later in the video, Luis gives us a walkthrough of the build. Darksiders was previously featured in GameAxis Unwired August 2009, and due to be launched January 2010.
P.S. I apologize if I seem hyper. Hong Kong kinda does that to me.




![[CLOSED] Red Dead Redemption Card Deck Giveaway](http://gameaxis.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/Red-Dead-Playing-Cards.jpg)
[..YouTube..] quietstorm, totally agree with you, im the biggest fanof dead space, im waiting for the second one,(tha has been announced)I think is the best game of 2008 and probably 2009
[..YouTube..] It is clearly different than GOW. doesnt take a genious or a crystal ball to figure that out. will it be better? well that remains to be seen.

will it be better? well that remains to be seen.
[..YouTube..] I would like the next RE game to have Leon (my personal favorite character along with Jill) as the protagonist. RE4 is excellent it revolutionised the series but it still had scary moments. I enjoyed RE5 but its more action than survival-horror. No matter if it\’s the T-Virus Las Plagas or Uruboros us gamers face I want Capcom to bring back that scare factor.

[..YouTube..] @QuietstormRB zombies when need zombies back for the true horror in resident evil, dead space was an amazing game i loved it, still own it 2 is coming out, hell yes
[..YouTube..] its funny how this guy tries to throw out there how he thinks this game will be better tha Gow, dont get me wrong im still getting it but hold your tounge before trying to say how different or better its going to be he aint fooling nobody.
[..YouTube..] Agreed EA did an amazing job with Dead Space. They raised the bar in the survival-horror genre. I’m pretty sure Capcom took notes but I don’t have a clue what the next RE game will offer. I would like to see a true sequel to RE4.
[..YouTube..] @QuietstormRB, dead space was amazing! it proved to me that you could have a great 3rd person horror game with good controls and still be scary. i like some of the resident evil games like remake and re4 but the controls were tank like. maybe capcom will learn from dead space and make a great RE game with good controls.
dead space 2 will be a must buy for me as well.
[..YouTube..] Most definitely I’m personally looking forward to Dead Space 2. I have finished the first one numerous times and it still scares the shit outta me lol.
[..YouTube..] @QuietstormRB, im gonna invest a lot of money also on games but your right, it will be worth it. too bad lost planet 2 got delayed until later in the year so capcom could avoid the onslaught of big games coming out in the first 3 months of the year but theres still a ton of games to choose from.
[..YouTube..] 2010 will go down as one of the best years in gaming history. The titles you named are just a few of the many great titles that will be released. I’m gonna have an empty wallet lol but I won’t be mad about it.
[..YouTube..] gears of war 3 havent been anounced yet..
[..YouTube..] ok its decided im pre ordering this
[..YouTube..] darksiders could be the best game of 2010 and there are a lot of good ones coming out this year like red dead redemption, lost planet 2, crackdown 2 and hopefully rage and dead space 2 will be out this year also. 2010 will be like 2007 when it comes to the quality of games we will see.
[..YouTube..] Darksiders rocks!!! I can’t wait to get it. IGN announced that they will be allowing the rights to a third-party website to host 800 installs for the new Darksider PC beta. Hurry and download it at 101Gamer. org
[..YouTube..] just don’t freeze yourself, look where he ended up;)
[..YouTube..] between this game GOW3 bayonetta and dantes inferno i will platform playing crazy the first couple months in 2010…then ya got the shooters like BiOshock 2 Bad Comp 2 and MAG….shit were loaded
[..YouTube..] looks like a great game!
[..YouTube..] I guess there is a direct download for this game at
GETYOURSFREETODAY . COM
Get yours now!
[..YouTube..] this ame and dantes inferno will go hand in hand
[..YouTube..] 2 years I’ve been waiting for this game and now It’s just a couple of weeks away I feel like cartman in the nintendo wii episode of southpark
[..YouTube..] imagine multiplayer on this (creating your own Character) but thier isn’t won’t last long after you clocked it
[..YouTube..] That finisher at the end was pretty sweet. FATALITY!
[..YouTube..] depends on how you define “open world.”
There isnt open world in the same sense as GTA like one big area with no breaks..however there is in the same sense as in Zelda Ocarina of Time.
As in there are several large levels connected by a few giant centrel levels and you are able to move between them freely.
Call that what you like…the way i see it it falls under the catagory of open world.
And really..no matter what you call it its very different than Gow,dmc and the like.
[..YouTube..] their is no open world exploration. the levels are just really big.
[..YouTube..] how about a couple more things!
4: throwing objects: picking up cars and hurling them at your enemies. or you can just swing them around.
5: non linear progression. your not forced to do the every level in a preset order.
its obviously different than gow to anyone who knows the games. dont get me wrong..its in the same genre so youll see some similarities.
but its like saying call of duty and gears of war are the same cause they both feature shooting with shotguns and sniper rifles.
[..YouTube..] First lets point out some obvious differences from GOW.
1.Open world exploration.
2.Mount system: the horse can be called and dismissed on the fly in most open areas, you can use many of yoru weapons while on it.
3. Deep Range Combat: you can fire your range weapons at your locked target but you can also enter a free aim mode (like a shooter) by clicking the right stick andf aim at key points of your enemies.
:)
Besides GOW borrowed ideas from previous games. its how the industry works.
[..YouTube..] looks pretty legit
[..YouTube..] just because it’s open world doesn’t set it apart that much. you sound like the retard. little special ed boy get picked on?
[..YouTube..] god of war is linear, this isnt.
fuckin retard.
[..YouTube..] Wow i thought this game was stupid, this vid proved me wrong. But still, i think the maincharacter is to much broadly shaped.. Still sick game
[..YouTube..] Wow i thought this game was stupid, this vid proved me wrong. But still, i think the maincharacter is to much broadly shaped.. Still sick game
[..YouTube..] Looks more like Prototype to me, actually.
[..YouTube..] he asks him “what makes this different than gow” and of course he comes up with the same abstract bullshit answer that everyone comes up when there really is nothing to set this game apart from something like GoW: “The amount of depth”. Gimme a break.
[..YouTube..] i dare to say this looks better that GOW….
[..YouTube..] But how many things can change??? Uh??
Exploration??? Puzzles???
Those “unique” features already on DmC and GoW and million other games ! ! And i forget to mentionate Dante’s Inferno too, more od the same ! ! God is a sad situation and you are so blind ! !
Why do this game ? Why no try to innovate ?? Patapon or Shadow of the colossus are nice examples.
[..YouTube..] @batusaimanuel Trash? Are you so solely focused on the combat you neglect to see the exploration aspect of the game? Perhaps you should do more research before you post ignorant sh** like this.
Darksiders is NOT a GoW/DMC clone; the only element it borrows from said series is the combat and THAT’S it. There is an exploration aspect and puzzle-filled dungeons from games like Metroid and Zelda; combine these two features and you have a unique action/adventure title.
[..YouTube..] God ! You are idiot ! That game aren’t similar to gow or dmc not even close
[..YouTube..] God ! ! The same trash ! Bayoneta and this game, try another thing not only copy GoW and DmC
[..YouTube..] hey its hiro nakamora from Heroes looool
[..YouTube..] hey its hiro nakamoro from heroes loool
[..YouTube..] beautiful game
[..YouTube..] it looks friggin’ awesome. 5 stars.
[..YouTube..] Looks pretty mehish.
